May 31, 2012

Freightliner Trucks’2014 CascadiaEvolution Class 8 truck model is powered by Detroitand features aerodynamic enhancements. The Cascadia Evolution delivers up to an additional 7 percent improvement in fuel economy over an EPA 2010-compliant Cascadia equipped with a first generation aerodynamic package and up to a 5 percent improvement compared to a current model year 2013 Cascadia equipped with the latest aerodynamic upgrades.
